If you have requirements defined in an external tool, such as IBM® Rational® RequisitePro®,
you can import them directly into a test plan. If a requirement that you import
is changed or deleted in its original requirements application, the status
of the requirement in the test plan changes to Suspect.
When a requirement is marked as suspect, a tester or test manager
can adjust the test plan as needed.
To import requirements into a test
plan:
- Open a test plan.
- From the Table of Contents, click Requirements to
display the Requirements section of the test plan.
- Click the Import Requirement(s) icon (
). This starts the Import Requirement wizard.
- Configure the requirement source.
- From the list, select the requirement Source type, for example RequisitePro.
Note: This integration requires RequisitePro, version 7.1.
- In the Host Name field, type the host
name or IP address of the host.
- In the Port field, type the port number
of the host, and click Next.
- Select the name of the project in the requirements repository.
- Type your user ID and password for the requirements repository,
and click Next.
- In the Type field, select the requirement
type of the requirements to import. A list of requirements
displays.
- Select the requirements from the list, and click Import.
The requirements are imported into the test plan and display
in the Requirements section.
- Click Save.
